Book Synopsis
A timely reissue of CWA-shortlisted Karin Alvtegen's acclaimed psychological thriller

Trade Review
Reminiscent of Ruth Rendell at her best. * * Herald * *
Alvtegen is a name to watch. * * Guardian * *
A compelling tale...full of false leads and bloody deeds. * * Sunday Herald * *
Alvtegen's chilling novels are head and shoulders above the rest of the Scandi crew. * * Daily Mail * *
Alvtegen powerfully evokes Sibylla's sense of persecution and conveys what it means to live as an outsider, without ever compromising this compulsive thriller. * * Metro * *
A genuine hit . . . a brilliant novel. -- Gefle Dagblad, Sweden
A very powerful novel. Skilfully, very intimately and realistically, Alvtegen describes an individual living outside the margins. -- Helsingborgs Dagblad
A gripping, multi-faceted thriller. It is not only about brutal murder, but also about something more profound - an individual's road to awareness about her own life and value . . . Alvtegen is already amongst the top Swedish crime and thriller authors. * * Folkbladet Jönköping * *
